KSeF – what is it?
The National e-Invoice System (KSeF) is an ICT system that was introduced in Poland to streamline and automate processes related to issuing, receiving and storing electronic invoices. In addition, the KSeF system:
- unifies the way businesses settle their accounts,
- improves communication between taxpayers and tax administration,
- prevents tax fraud.
As an entrepreneur, you can already use the National e-Invoice System voluntarily from January 2022. However, as early as July 1, 2024, KSeF will become mandatory and will be a standard required of all VAT payers.
In the European Union, e-invoicing is also mandatory in Italy and Serbia. Romania is beginning to make e-invoicing mandatory across the board as of January 1, 2024. Belgium, France, Spain and Germany are also preparing to implement it.
National e-Invoicing System – improve efficiency and increase savings
Companies that already use KSeF gain a competitive advantage and can focus on their main business goal, instead of wasting time and money on using the traditional invoicing method. What are the benefits of introducing the National e-Invoicing System? Find the answers below!
Faster document flow
Entrepreneurs are well aware that traditional invoices need to be printed, mailed and delivered to the hands of the recipient. Structured invoices in electronic form, on the other hand, can be sent in real time through the appropriate platform. This shortens the entire process from issuance to its receipt by the customer, which significantly affects the speed of payment, which in turn improves the company’s cash flow. In addition, KSeF e-invoices can be automatically processed.
Facilitating the archiving of e-invoices
The National e-Invoice System allows electronic storage of invoices for a period of 10 years. This also makes e-invoice records more transparent and easier to manage.
Increased data security
KSeF introduces advanced security mechanisms that protect invoice data from unauthorized access. This is important, especially in the context of growing cybercrime threats. Companies can rest assured that their e-invoice data is properly secured.
Eliminating errors
The preparation of traditional invoices is subject to human error, such as incorrect calculations, mistakes in bank account numbers or incorrect address data. KSeF allows automatic half-filling in structured invoices, which minimizes the risk of errors. In addition, the KSeF application contains control mechanisms that check the correctness of the data even before the invoice is sent.
